What is furry...

And has 8 legs?!

This is my new Tarantula, of course, a Rosehair Shes very docile, but i havent tried picking her up *gags* I've only petted her with tongs and she was very calm. I LOVE the pink highlights I'm sure this one is only the FIRSt of MANY Havent got a name for it either, anyone got ideas???






As most of you know, Spiders and Crickets are on the TOP of my "greatest fears" list! So i'm hopeing that I can slowly overcomb some of my fear by starting out with this rosie. If I do well, does anyone have any other "beginer" tarantulas that they would recomend for me? I already want a Mexican Red Knee, but i DO want to get another, im open to ANYTHING docile..that doesnt look like a "spider" (i can do tarantulas..they are colorful and fluffy)... Wow im retarded...LOL

Just seeing that picture freaks me out. You are far tougher than I! Congrats, facing fears like that is so unbelievably hard to do.

Nice pics!!! I had a red-knee a while back, ok about 8 years ago, and it was awesome! But now, my girlfriend is soooooo freaked out by spiders and such that the only one I can have in the house is this........
(Only when I am painting them for others )
